Scots Poet
Resurgent 10yo who led close home at Perth (2m, good) last month and has now won three times since April; unlucky to come to grief when back at Perth last week and remains of strong interest, albeit he was well beaten over C&D on his only previous start here.

Big Gypsy King
Improved to cause 25-1 surprise in C&D (good) novice last month, her fourth start over hurdles, but the value of that form is open to question (market principals disappointed) and her opening handicap mark probably demands further progress.

Zamond
Four hurdle wins, including this race in 2022; well held in C&D selling handicap in May, after a break, but last month's keeping-on second here was much better and he remains on a workable mark.

Raffles Nobu
Took a while to get off the mark for current stable and had become expensive to follow but exploited much-reduced mark when winning stylishly at Newton Abbot (2m2f, good to firm) a week ago and still looks well treated under a 7lb penalty.

Ran well for a long way when third at Kelso (2m2f, good) in April but two lesser efforts have followed and he's now 0-7 for current stable; sometimes races too freely; others have more pressing claims.

Out of form for new stable this year and needs recent wind op to have made a big difference.

Now 9lb lower than when making all over C&D (good) last August but his form has slumped since and a revival is needed.

Mr Globalist
Swapped usual cheekpieces for refitted visor and gave good account when third from 3lb out of the weights over C&D (good) on Saturday; will effectively be 1lb lower if he turns out again but his 0-42 career strike-rate is not easily overlooked.
